Why We're Buying
For an estate with a Premier grand cru classé (B) rating, Château Troplong Mondot doesn't garner as much attention. The estate has turned that perception around in recent years, thanks to collaborations with oenologist Michel Rolland and Food and Wine Magazine's Winemaker of the Year, Aaron Pott.
Critics Scores
Vinous
The 2021 Troplong Mondot is shockingly raw and untamed, but in the very best sense of those terms. A wine of energy and pure power, the 2021 is going to need a number of years to be at its best, but it is certainly very impressive in the early going. The 2021 clocks in at 13.5, which has not been seen here since the 1990s. The 2021 is not an easy wine to taste at this stage, as it is not fully formed. I won't be surprised if the 2021 turns out even better than this note suggests. It is a dazzling wine by any measure, and a far cry from the wines of decade ago, when the malolactic fermentations were often not finished when en primeur samples were presented! Superb. –Antonio Galloni Barrel Sample: 95-97
